Helpful Tips to make Lemon Berry Cheesecake Fruit Salad:

Instead of mixing heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract, you can substitute for 1 cup of French Vanilla Creamer.

Do not pour all the heavy cream mixture into the cream cheese mixture at once. It will get clumpy and won't mix well. Trust me on this one.

To make this fruit salad ahead of time, prepare the cream cheese pudding mixture and cover and refrigerate the bowl. In a separate bowl mix all the berries and refrigerate those too. When you're ready to serve, drain any extra liquid that has built up in the fruit and then fold in the cheesecake filling with the fruit. Now it's ready to serve!
